Configuration Help & General Discussion

Hello,

1- buying a new Mac: how to transfer my BTT license ?

2- what is the difference between Help→Export FULL BetterTouchTool Backup As Zip File and going to BTT Presets → Export presents ? There must be. a huge difference because the full export is 1.5GB and the presets export is 10 MB.

thank you very much !

if you still have the license mail you can just activate the license on a new machine - otherwise you can export your license in BTT's "About" section:

the full backup includes all databases (BTT keeps them for multiple previous versions so users can downgrade), the clipboard history (if the clipboard manager is used) and various other things. To just restore your setup a preset is enough though.
